In honor of the month of love, I am going to offer some great info I wrote a few years ago with my BIG Life project. You will value your safety, your feelings and health. Since the reality is our self-esteem does fluctuate, here are some tips to help you. Love yourself. People often describe their self-esteem like a thermometer.

Some managers feel that they would do the project themselves just so they know it will get done their way. In an effort to curb the constant interruptions by your supervisor who is inquiring about your status on a project, give him constant updates so that he can be assured that you are in the process of completion. Ask questions.

Did you ask a co-worker to help you on a project and got the feeling that they really didn’t want to help you? Ask for input/suggestions If possible, before making a request ask for some input on how the project or task can be completed more efficiently. This shows that you are interested and open to suggestions.

I will manage the tasks and projects set before me appropriately so that deadlines are met. I will communicate effectively and assertively so that there is a clear understanding of what is required and requested. Our supervisors depend on us, customers and clients consult with us, and co-workers interact with us.

Even the most ambitious of people have days where they choose a Netflix binge over finishing a project. Along with health, time and energy are our most valuable resources. Household chores and projects all find their way in between. This tip is the hardest. Somedays are blessed with more vigor and determination.

Listen with empathy not sympathy and be assertive in your response. In other words, provide them frequent updates before they have to ask where you are on the project. Finally, give assurance that the project will be completed by the deadline (while giving updates until completion). Let them have their words. Do not interrupt.

The ultimate project management victory: I crossed off my own death today. In this respect, a project is never “finished” in ADD. The graphical representation of a project in Assess – Decide – Do will look more like a spiral than like a Gantt diagram. Projects, tasks and events will start to fall into their places.

Decision is the state in which you project your next reality. I will have a look at this one too, thanks for the tip. Living a scrip-based life would be an imbalance of the Assess realm: you’re acting without thinking (assessing). You’re coming to this stage after finishing an assessment session completely.
